Status Check for 2009: Is Your Job Safe?

As we approach the new year, there is a big uncertainty looming everywhere. For a large majority of people, the uncertainty is about their job. Is it safe? In other words, will they have a job or not?

I think the real question should be “Is someone really employable in the new economy or not?” but that’s a topic for another discussion.

This is a quick exercise to do a status check on the “safety” of your job. The questionnaire is in no way complete. The focus is to make you think beyond the “job responsibilities” outlined in your offer letter.
